I'm in Pre Calc right now I might be able to help you but no promises (I don't even know what some of those things you mentioned are because in my state they might be called something else). I'm also taking a physics/ chemistry class and have a 105% in the class so just ask if you need anything (hate math and science, too logical, but I do retain much information)

I studied maths and physics for A level (That's what we do between 16 and 18 in the UK) so I might be able to help with maths and science.

What part of each of those topics are you struggling with? I'll try to give a summary of everything I remember about what you've listed so far... (Our syllabus is likely to be different from yours...) Feel free to shout at me if I'm writing at the wrong level. (I have no idea what the American levels are like...)

Bearings: Angle measured in degrees clockwise from due North. EG: 270 degrees would be due West.

Graphs:
*The X axis (horizontal) is normally the variable that you can change (eg. temperature of a room) and the Y axis (vertical) depends on the x axis (eg. how thirsty the people inside get)
*Use your ruler when plotting the points. You might get the wrong line on the paper without realising, making the graph shift in strange ways.
*Remember to put labels and units on the axis. In the example I used before, I'd probably use Celsius (or Fahrenheit) for the X axis (temperature) and "How many bottles of water each person drinks" for the Y axis.

Algebra: (The stuff you'll only use if you become a mathematician or a programmer.)
*When looking at equations and functions, see if you can get rid of anything. EG: in 3X + Y^2 = 3X + 9 (^2 is squared) you can remove the "3X" from both sides because they cancel out.
*Make sure you never divide by 0, or anything that might be 0. EG: XY = X does not mean that Y = 1... If X is 0, then Y can be any number you can dream of...

Math can be easy and hard for me. Matters what kind. I don't like dealing with geometry though it can be sometimes easy. One time I thought it was easy (WOW)! I like literature the best or reading. I'm not good at grammar though.

But I was prity good at high school.
However I dropped maths last year.

PE is NOT fun. To who ever said that. It is evil and must die!!!
I dropped that as so as I could. but mind you I never brought my gear to school for like 3 years prior. We have mean people at our school. GSSC sux

I was very good at maths in middle school, but in high school I started having some troubles with PreCalc. I was great at Geometry and okay at Statistics, but those Algebra-based maths...not so much. However now, I'm taking Probability and Statistics and it's quite easy. I'm doing rather well.

You can kill me on my maths. I am okay with my English but I don't know why these few days, teachers said that my English Oral is getting worser as I use too much American slang. So I am trying to get used on british English but it was like....... Never mind.
My chinese i don't even give a damm as I hate that subject and know that I forever won't pass my chinese oral.
Elements of Office adminstration was very hard but managed to passed.
But Computer Appicaitions, i hate multimedia presentation, it sucks like hell >.<
Science, I have no problem with practical but sucks at Theory >.<

God are now touturing us..........
